British television has a knack for doing more with less, and Coldwater is a prime example. It's currently available in the US on fuboTV and Paramount Plus Premium, and in the UK on ITVX, so there's no reason to keep putting it off. A 7/10 rating means the audience agrees.

The procedural format gives Coldwater its backbone, but it's the characters you come back for. A man in the midst of a mid-life crisis moves his family to a remote Scottish village, only to find himself entangled in a dangerous friendship with a sinister neighbour. Andrew Lincoln and Ewen Bremner lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It aired in 2025.

Perfect for viewers who think they've already seen all the great crime dramas. Coldwater is the one that tends to prove them wrong.
